Personal Care
A little extra help with daily routines, with dignity and independence at the centre.
About this support
Support around daily routines
Care may include help with preparing meals and eating, personal hygiene, daily errands and medication reminders. Tell the team what feels difficult and what you would like to keep doing independently.
Private or funded support
Personal care may be arranged through an approved Support at Home package or private care. If you are unsure how to access aged care, the team can help explain the next step.
Review care as needs change
Your Care Partner can review the care plan and help arrange a new My Aged Care assessment when needed. Support is adjusted within your approved arrangements and programme rules.
Care that understands you
Care Partners listen to you and your family to develop a person-centred plan. Services can be reviewed as needs change, within available funding and programme rules. Our team supports cultural needs; many staff speak Russian, Hebrew, Polish or Hungarian as well as English.
